Sam Abell

I'm inspired and motivated by the works of Sam Abell. I hope to take a workshop given by him sometime soon. I realized earlier this evening that I missed one he had in Ohio in May of this year. I'm not going to miss his next one that's in the Northeast.

In doing some Internet research on him I came across an extensive article/interview/portfolio of him in Digital Journalist from February 2002. Here's a link. I watched all of the videos and recommend them. Many of the photographs in the slideshow have never been shown to the public before.

I have and treasure a copy of his book "A Photographic Life". I have his other books on my wishlist.
